  1. I agree with this video but what happens I think is that parents get tired and save energy where they can. It takes alot of effort to teach people.
  2. Is depression and suicide always a result of bad parenting? Can you have shitting parents and not be depressed and suicidal?
  3. I watched this, gave me anxiety and I believe it's toxic and doesn't give much value. It was interesting to see the crazy things people believe but it's basically unconscious people talking over each other. Also people most of the time they are arguing over definitions on that channel. In most debates the person who can think the quickest and has a more authoritative rhetoric usually seen as "winning" even if they aren't right.
  4. In Leo's last video he stressed the importance of logic. But what's logical about being a ceiling fan for 20 years on a salvia trip (as was the case in a video he shared)? What's logical about God being in two places at once, namely inside each of our heads? I feel like God is more illogical than logical. Or am I wrong?
  5. My parents were low key toxic AF, no positive reinforcement, no kind words, no pats on the shoulder, no usuable advice, no deep talks about important things, plenty of scapegoating the kids, blaming the kids for all family problems never themselves, cheap as fuck. We were financially very stable but parents had their heads up the Catholic priests ass so far they had no mind for the family.
  6. Please share a YouTube video you found interesting, inspiring, or other wise great. Thanks
  7. You know why Aristotle didn't write anything down? because he thought the new technology of writing would make people mentally lazy.
  8. Follow the golden rule: treat other's the way you would like to be treated. Alot of people wish their parents never gave birth to them. As long as your kid isn't one of those people you will make a good parent.
  9. I shared the clip here. It's the first topic "nothing begins to exist".
  10. Isn't contemplating the world around us what we do here?
  11. Christianity has had a 2000 year trial period and it still hasn't created a perfect Christian heaven on earth. Couldn't God come up with a better plan? Couldn't God come up with a message that instantly and decisively convinces and converts the listener? isnt God powerful enought to come up with a message that is immune to corruption and misinterpretation? Yet Christians have been creating a whole bunch of devilery in the past 2000 years "in the name of God". Similarily if there is "One true God" why can't Christians agree with each other and create different sects? Muslims don't agree with each other either and they also claim there is "one true Allah".
  12. Don't worry I'm not. God is here right now every moment no need for a church or a sacred ancient text. I mean religion is bullshit. And my post is my best proof of that.
  13. Couldn't an "all-powerful" God create an uncorruptible religion? Because all religions can be corrupted is proof that they are created by humans. Yes there's some truth to the religions but they weren't created by a God in the sky.
  14. Watch Leos videos, force your mind to meditate/contemplate 24/7, even when you are doing other stuff.
  15. When Genghis Khan invaded Europe, The Europeans thought the dark skinned devils were somehow a Jewish curse....... So the Christians, defenseless against the sophisticated Mongols, started rounding up and murdering the Jews instead🤣. (Source Genghis Khan book)
  16. The Democrats lost the plot when Hillary Clinton and Joe Biden unfairly squeezed out Sanders during their primaries. Sanders was the correct left wing populist response to Trump.
  17. This is the topic that the left is debating right now. I'm agree with Ezra Klein and the Abundance movement that says the left is too mainstream, too centrist, too status quo. We need more bold radical ideas that captivate and inspire people. Maybe not more trans issues but more radical ideas to solve income inequality and better messaging.
  18. Please do. Also include how China fits into yhe spiral Dynamics theory?
  19. Any thoughts on this video?..makes China seem pretty good. There's no left vs right political BS for one...
  20. And the US didn't own slaves it was those "evil" slave owners. /S Taking responsibility for your actions is the first step towards better actions. From the Chinese perspective Trump is very much the US. The individual is the society and the society is the individual as Krishnamurti would say. Ya Trump sucks but Trump is a product of toxic bipartisanship, and Democrat inaction and poor messaging. He is also democratically elected. If the citizens of a country are stupid enough to elect him then the country is on the same level as Trump and is just as stupid. If they were fooled they're stupid enough to be fooled.
  21. I think I understand Trump's logic and I think I can stealman it pretty well. If we purchase more things from a country than it purchases from us we are losing money (and gaining goods). The US spends more money servicing it's debt than it doesn't on the military. Trump is trying to curb spending. His plan might make things even worse but at least he's addressing the debt issue that both sides of the aisle agree on is bad.
